[U-Boot] Does U-boot supports Spansion S29GL512P NOR Flash?

Hmm.. If you're supposed to boot from this device, then I assume the
flash is connected to CS0.For slow devices, the memory controller is
usually setup to use the GPCM. Check your options and base registers
(OR0 and BR0). Everything related to timing (for GPCM controlled
devices) is done in these two registers.

If you have a BDI JTAG, you can set these registers using that and try
to perform flash operations from here. Again, if you can, try to
access the flash using the JTAG before experimenting with U-Boot.

You mention different size.. is the port size different too?

In order to help you, I think the community needs more info about your
system. Stefan asked for logs, etc.
